Ladies Love “Green” Snake

CHILLICOTHE, IL Feb 27, 2008 – Women and snakes just don’t mix – that is, until now.

The new product is called FlexiSnake, and it helps ladies unclog their bathroom drains all by themselves. It’s a novel combination of hook-and-loop technology and a flexible, miniature drain snake which the manufacturer says will open a hair-clogged sink or bathtub drain in just a couple minutes. 

Scott Turner, the inventor of this strange-looking, plastic tool, discovered that hair is frequently the cause of slow drains.  He and his son started selling the new, disposable device recently and said it has quickly become a hit with females.  According to Turner, households with women find that their lovely locks often end up down the drain, tangled around a bathroom sink or tub drain pop-up stopper. “This starts a snowball effect resulting in standing water in sinks, bathtubs and showers. Almost one out of two people will buy dangerous chemical drain cleaners when their drain starts to slow” he says. “But they aren’t effective on hair, especially these common drain-stopper types of hair clogs”. 

The Turners say their FlexiSnake is a “green”, environmentally-friendly product because it is an alternative to dumping those harsh chemicals down the drain. They also say that FlexiSnake is safe to use whereas drain chemicals are not. Their website, www.flexisnake.com is filled with glowing testimonials that indicate people have been looking for a solution like this that really works. “There is this surprise and satisfaction when you see what’s been causing your problem and knowing it’s out” Turner says, “and the results are immediate”.
 
Turner’s son Steve came to his dad’s rescue when orders starting flooding in from their new website. “We’ve studied the orders and a majority of them were from women” Steve says.  “It weighs less than an ounce, fits in a shirt pocket and is easy to use. They don’t have to wait until football season is over to get their husbands to unclog the drain. Single ladies can just fix it themselves and save a call to the plumber.”

The Turner’s have filed numerous patent applications for the new product. “We’re getting requests for FlexiSnake literally all over the world” Steve says. “The internet has allowed us to see how universal this problem is and the frustration people have with chemicals.  FlexiSnake is really a no-brainer for folks because it’s faster and safer but still inexpensive.  We’re the first to market a Velcro-based device for hair clogged drains, and it’s actually revolutionary.  We think it has the potential to be a game-changer for this segment of the drain cleaning marketplace. It’s just a better way to clean your drain”.

So don’t be surprised if you see a snake lying in your shower. It will probably be between the shampoo and conditioner.

FlexiSnake is not yet sold in stores but can be purchased online at FlexiSnake.com.
